blower - why?
take no notice rob just being daft.
after reading the mega thread.
ah right 🙂 hows the build going? nearly done?
I've only very briefly used them, with flexible soled shoes the raised centre was pretty irritatingly obvious compared to my Nanos, but I've a feeling with a stiffer sole that wouldn't be an issue. Felt less grippy too but not terribly so. I'll probably be picking up a set for the XC bike at some point but I don't think I'd put them on a big bike.
The axle's either the same or very similiar to the Nano one, which is just a wee bit less strong than is ideal but not so delicate as to be a liability.
build is not there yet waiting on wheels being rebuilt.
Have them on 2 bikes currently. They only really work/grip adequately with the pins screwed all the way out (they come circa 50% screwed out so have plenty capacity for extending further).
I don't think strength will be a problem. Have taken a few meaty rock strikes on my super-low bottom bracketed and undersprung/underdamped DH bike... if that sort of anecdotal evidence helps! And they're light and cheap (£33) on top of that so ticking lots of boxes in my book as far as pedals go.

Yes exactly right. They were better when screwed all the way through.
i like mine.
350 grams (yes i've weighed them)
£35
no lack of grip
sturdy enough so far...
no paint to scratch off.
as Northwind says, the raised middle/axle bit is annoying with some (flexible?) shoes, but they feel ace when i'm wearing my AM40's.
